Replaces the terms father, mother, and filiation to gender neutral language; repealer

Bill A 8382 updates the language in the Family Court Act by replacing gender-specific terms with gender-neutral alternatives. It changes words like "father," "mother," and "paternity" to "parent," "parties," and "parentage" in various sections. This bill directly affects individuals involved in family court proceedings concerning the establishment of parentage and child support. For instance, it modifies provisions related to genetic marker tests, ordering them for "the parties and the child" to determine parentage.
